Thanks!

The DA that day was dead on 950 that day I remember now. Our track is right around that. I honestly don't know how much my car weighs. I've done the typical "cheap" lightening like front and rear bumper supports, sound deadener, airbags, alum ds, motorcycle battery and passenger seat. I still have the stock k-member, rear salad shooters, rack, and a 9" Moser rearend. The driver is 210 .

I hope so. However I don't think I'll be doing those kind of times or mph since the car is still a full 3750lb weight w/ me as well as it being 11:1 and I think my cam is a bit smaller.
We'll see...

That car is really cool, when I build my motor it will probably be really similiar to your setup. I was looking at the afr heads, does anyone know how they compare to the lingenfelters?

Thats moving out hard! Sounds like with a little suspension work on a good night you could see some very low 10s!

I could use some of that 950 DA around here! Here in centeral Oklahoma the DA typically runs from 4000 to 5000 ft during the summer.

You'll need to get you a 6-point bar so you can have some fun and not get run off at the track. Also, a 5-point harness which is very important at the speeds you're running.

I have the Wolfe 6-point bolt-in and really like it. The roll-bar and 5-point harness is a much more secure feeling once you have those items in your car. The 6-point bar and 5-point harness will certify your car down to 10.00 flat.

My car is currently around 3320 lbs with the 6-point Wolfe and Strange 12-bolt (w/o me in it, I'm 175). I also need to do some more weight reduction.

Nice runs, I am surprised you are hooking up on those stock 16" salad shooter wheels. I am hoping to join the N/A 10second club as soon it cools off a little.
